Originally appearing as part of a special edition of
Sleeping with Ghosts,
Covers rounds up ten covers
Placebo released as B-sides and stray tracks during the first decade of their career. Most of the selections make sense -- they’re ‘80s alt-rock and ‘70s glam rock staples, never departing from the canon (
the Smiths rub shoulders with
T. Rex), but not disappointing, either, and always displaying the band’s good taste if not quite their interpretive skills.
